Our old friend Tsavo returns to dogsinpubs. Here he is in The Fox, enjoying the carpet and wondering why pal Sophie doesn’t seem so interested in speaking to him. Thanks to @tsavoaspringer for the photo!

We think this will be a familiar sight to any dog owner! You’ve just picked up that bag of crisps. There’s a slight rustle as you open it. Something catches the corner of your eye. You look up and… Thanks to @SaagGhost for one of our favourite photos in ages!

We’re not quite sure what’s going on here but Billy – yes Billy – looks relatively happy with his fairy costume. In fact, he’s almost pulling off ‘dignified’ on his trip to The Edinboro Castle, Camden, London. Thanks to @AnieDavis for the photo!

Reckon the furry face in the background is feeling a bit left out? “What’s going on over there?! It looks fun.” Thanks to Sarah for this photo of Rocky the German Shepherd Puppy and a sneaky background springer in The Pelican in her Piety, Ogmore-by-Sea, South Wales.

One of the best, most welcoming, sights in a public house is the presence of a pub dog.

Lazing by an open fire. At the feet of their master. Bowl of water. Maybe a sneaky beer taster. Fresh from a walk. Snaffling round for rogue nuts and scratchings. Sniffing out recent canine visitors. Fussed over by other drinkers. Can I say hello to your dog? What his name? It is a he isn’t it?
